JEE main - Physics

1. (a) 2600 km
Explanation:
Gravitational potential at a height h from the surface of the earth,
Vh = -5.4 × 10 J kg-2
At the same point, acceleration due to gravity
gh = 6 ms-2

R = 6400 km = 6.4 × 106 m

GM GM V
We know that, Vh = − , gh =

(R + h) (R + h) (R + h)

∴ R+h=− gh
or h = − gh
− R

∴ h = − − 6.4 × 10

= 9 × 106 - 6.4 × 106 = 2600 km

Therefore, resultant force on (2 m) is

FR = FGA + FGB + FGC

= 2Gm2^j + 2Gm2^i (-cos30o + cos30o) + 2Gm2^j (-sin30o - sin30o)

Explanation:
To solve this problem we have to resort to Kepler's Third Law of orbital motion and it states that the square if the average
orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the average orbital radius such that T2 α R3 If we reduce radius of the

If the radius of the earth is made n times keeping the mass unchanged, the escape velocity will become ( 1
